Is it OK to repeat polio drops?

Q:My friend's daughter had taken polio drops on Sunday as part of the pulse polio programme, but she was also given the polio drops when she went to school, along with the other kids. Is it fine to repeat the polio drops at such a short frequency?

A:Pulse Polio drops should be given as and when the cyclical polio campaign comes around. If a second dose of pulse polio vaccine was repeated accidentally, the child should come to no harm.
